In chemistry, a type of molecular isomer that can undergo reverse or recursive structural rearrangement, related to anakinesis.
From anakinetic + '-omer' (part or unit). A term from advanced organic chemistry combining Greek roots ana- (back) + kinesis (movement) + -mer (part). Rare in modern usage, represents specialized 20th-century chemical nomenclature.
Anakinetomers are molecules that can literally rearrange themselves backward—they're like molecular origami that can fold and unfold in multiple directions, which is important for understanding certain drug molecules.
